The Skinny!
best supporting actress: renee zellweger --- always an academy darling, and she plays second fiddle here to nicole kidman. CORRECT!
best supporting actor: tim robbins --- I'd like to see alec baldwin win, but the academy picks the oh so politically correct robbins. CORRECT!
best actress: charlize theron --- rule of thumb: attractive actress gains weight to play a murderer and lesbian --- that's called a lock ! ! ! CORRECT!
best actor: bill murray --- You can pick sean penn any year, but this is bill murray's greatest performance since caddyshack. WRONG!
best director: peter jackson --- overlooked until now, the academy feels it necessary to award anybody who directs a trilogy. CORRECT!
best picture: lost in translation --- subtly brilliant movie about loneliness in the modern world. What else can I say? Oh, I've seen it 3 times! WRONG!
